Replacing your windows to EnergyStar rated National Vinyl windows may add to the asking price of your home. As mentioned before, windows preserve most of their initial value especially given their long life expectancy. At a rate of 72.3% estimated for 2020 an average total window replacement job costing $17,925 would preserve $13,018 of its initial value.
Moreover, many buyers are willing to pay a premium for energy savings. Here we try to estimate : What’s the return on investment on energy savings on the market? What follows is what we estimated in Pittsfield:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Pittsfield, your home value could increase by around $1021.49 and $1494.77 for a mid-tier or top-tier Pittsfield home respectively. Compare this to, the same upgrade in Concord may get you somewhere between $1032 and $1510.16.
Single-Pane to National Vinyl
When upgrading from low-efficiency single-pane windows, the potential is even greater. Pittsfield homeowners may expect an estimated home value increase of between $2761.47 for mid-tier homes and $4040.95 for the top tier. Compare this to between $2832 and $4144.16 in Concord.
In other words, a window upgrade in Pittsfield can add anywhere from 0.46% percent and 1.8 % percent to the asking price of your home by way of the energy efficiency premium buyers have shown a willingness to pay. Add to this the aforementioned +72.3% retained upfront worth of your windows, and National Vinyl’s lifetime warranty, the value proposition for a Pittsfield homeowner is quite clear.
The variation between the range for Pittsfield and Concord, which for reference, would yield a potential premium range of 0.46% percent and 0.67% percent respectively, is derived from a number of factors, principally; the -0.11% percent difference in median home prices, a buyers’ propensity to pay more for energy savings at a given price point in the Concord region, and heating & cooling price differences between Pittsfield and Concord.
